APPALACHIAN MOUNTAIN MUSICIANS, SUCH AS THOSE ON THE FALLEN STARS LABEL, HAVE FOUND IT HARD TO "MAKE A SPLASH" IN THE MUSIC WORLD, NOT BECAUSE OF LACK OF TALENT, BUT LACK OF MONETARY RESOURCES FOR PROMOTION. |

Hello, and welcome to the "Ron Swindall Music" page. This web site provides information about the life and music of this artist and links to lots of other information about musicians, both well known and not so well known that have resided in the mountains of Southwestern Virginia. We hope you'll enjoy browsing all the information that is available here and that you might enjoy the music enough to support our cause of promoting our own "ROOTS" music (not that written either now nor long ago by someone else). You'll find this site to be a rather unusual concoction of info and different venues of music. We do love bluegrass (which started in Kentucky, not Virginia, and is based on our Irish ancestry), but we Virginians can't claim it. However, as much as anyone in this country , or maybe even more, we do own those songs which were passed down in these mountains for decades or even centuries. We can also, as good Americans, lay claim to at least some of those fantastic Rockabilly, Rock 'n Roll, Blues, Pop Country/Western, and Jazz tunes that have been passed down for decades and we can be especially proud of the ones in those venues which were written by good ole mountain folk (and there are certainly more than you might imagine!). We encourage everyone to love all good music. Be open-minded, and ENJOY! |
IN MEMORY OF:
The wonderful performances, friendship and teaching/sharing by the following great musicians:
Glenn Carson Smith
Joseph Delmas Flanary
David Tipton
Jim Hurt
Kenneth Duncan
George Hammond
Gary D. Slemp
